[PATCH 1/2] [media] media-device: get rid of the spinlock

[PATCH 1/2] [media] media-device: get rid of the spinlock

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

Right now, the lock schema for media_device struct is messy,
since sometimes, it is protected via a spin lock, while, for
media graph traversal, it is protected by a mutex.

Solve this conflict by always using a mutex.

As a side effect, this prevents a bug when the media notifiers
is called at atomic context, while running the notifier callback:

 BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slub.c:1289

[PATCH 2/2] [media] media: Improve documentation for link_setup/link_modify

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

Those callbacks are called with the media_device.graph_mutex hold.

Add a note about that, as the code called by those notifiers should
not be touching in the mutex.

The indentation could be better, too.

How about simply:

"these callbacks are called with struct media_device.@graph_mutex mutex
held"

?

They're not IOCTLs, and the above is more simple, too.
